    Is there anything more satisfying than seeing an indomitable favourite vanquished?

    Personally, this is what I love to see most in boxing. I follow many boxers, but these type of outcomes are the ones which really throw fuel on the fire for me:

    Calzaghe vs. Lacy
    Castillo vs. Corrales I
    Gonzalez vs. Sor Rungvisai I & II
    Harrison vs. Sprott I
    Haye vs. Mormeck
    Marquez vs. Pacquiao IV
    Potter vs. Williams

    Any more?

              Degale was something like a 1/80 favorite to beat that yellow goblin from sin city.

                It was good to see lazy bum ass chavez knocking Sergio left and right in the 12th round loool.
                No matter who you rooting for that night you’d be thrilled by that last hurrah lol and I have no problem if he had succeeded to close the show that time

                  Wasn't Haye the slight favorite in that fight? That wasn't really an upset.

                    Haye was down and almost out in that fight. The writing was on the wall. He came blazing back though.
